fuck that,,,,, ive fucked the diff on my bmw and im trying to bribe rthe techs at work to change the diff for me as im FAR FAR FAR too lazy,,,,,,,,, ill get em to check the oil whilst they got then car in the air to aswell me thinks


ive my original project with a engine ect in bits in my garage,,,,,, i cant even be bothered to work on that

i was thinking a grey erst ( i do miss mine) with a decent spec and then change the gearbox for a mtx75,,,, cause thats a better box and cost fuck all when they die aslong as i dont fuck the bell housing

but then im also tempted by another saph cossie,,, but the looks are helping me not to choose it

thinking of a e34 M5,,,, but again,,,, ugley compared to the E39


erst's are cheep and feel thrown together and tbh,,,,, cost fuck all to repair in reality

Ginge ERST is soooooooooooooo not you.

Cossie was pushing it i say BMW M3 myself

But we know how you feel about that idea. However i am considering moving onwards and upwards, fancy my XR2 shell? You kid loves it and and ill even throw in a Recaro ake those mint carbon seats from it too

The Zetec turbo lump could go to a better home and ill keep the omex for the cossie i been looking at
